my wedding party dresses

I made my dress out of bridal satin starting with an old vogue pattern and changing it to a lace up back. The applique was removed from the neckline of my mothers wedding dress and sewn under the bust. My maid of honours dress was made using an old Simplicity pattern. It was a simple satin slip dress with an over layer made from drapery fabric.

My Veil was my own design, I used off white tuille and glass beads.

This was my own design. I took apart my mothers wedding dress and used the fabric from her train. The sash and under layer was made from the scraps of my maid of honours dress
